The crowdfunding site said in its annual report that people increasingly sought help with “essential expenses” like housing costs as inflation continues to bedevil Americans.
But according to Democrats, the economy was doing great… and it is… for the already wealthy. For everyone else it’s gotten kinda dicey.
I think voters staying home probably had more to do with the party talking down to them about their own lived experience with the economy. People are hurting and sick of being told by the “good” party that they have to wait longer for their lives and problems to be taken seriously.
It’s not a healthy response to it, but lots of response to mental abuse aren’t healthy, whaddayaknow. Because that’s what gaslighting people about the economy is, mental abuse.
I know we make fun of Trump voters for giving a shit about the cost of eggs, but when it comes down to it, a lot of us are struggling in near abject poverty here and are busting our asses to make ends meet. That includes a lot of smart people who see that the solutions aren’t in Donald Trump’s unhinged rhetoric. However, they also see that the Democrats aren’t offering solutions as much as bandaids and aren’t going all out for us but starting from positions of compromise like writing a damn immigration bill giving the Republicans everything they’ve ever asked for in regards to the border. And then this useless shit about bald eagles. Are we really surprised that shit’s not inspiring people to vote for them?

The Economy doesn’t account for distribution. Never has.
Economies doing just fine, shut up and eat your dirt.
It’s going to decuple after His Orangeness puts his stupid tariffs in place. Then you’ll miss the dems.
I mean, no shit? Like do you think this is a gotcha?
